After four years of marriage, the military officer husband came back

Xia Qingning turned and walked into the house, completely unaware of Lu Jingzhe's unhappy expression, and continued to pack the things she had bought.

Seeing Lu Jingzhe sitting silently, Xia Qingning hesitated and asked, thinking back to his attitude towards Wu Xiaodong over the past two days:

"Um, you don't like Xiaodong."

It's so obvious that she doesn't like me, but she just realized it now? Lu Jingzhe said in a deep voice with a cold face:

"He's always smiling and frivolous, and he's not serious at all."

After hearing this, Xia Qingning thought that Lu Jingzhe had some misunderstanding about Wu Xiaodong, so she hurriedly explained:

"No, Xiaodong is a very nice person. He works seriously and carefully, and he often helps others."

Lu Jingzhe frowned slightly, and silently listened to Xia Qingning's serious praise of Wu Xiaodong, then raised his eyes to look at her and asked:

"You think he's nice?"

Seeing that his face looked a little off, Xia Qingning wondered if he had any grudge against Wu Xiaodong in the past, which was why he disliked him so much. After hesitating for a moment, she said pertinently:

"Well, Xiaodong is really nice."

After hearing this, Lu Jingzhe felt even worse, but he remained calm. He didn't say anything else and watched Xia Qingning pack up in silence. He found that there was actually a popsicle on the table.

"It turns out she didn't forget and left one for myself." Lu Jingzhe thought so, and his anger subsided a lot, but the next second he saw Xia Qingning picked up the popsicle, tore open the wrapping paper, hesitated for a moment, and put it in her mouth.

Lu Jingzhe's expression froze for a moment. After a moment, he suddenly stood up from the chair, with a gloomy face, and walked away with big strides.

Xia Qingning was a little confused. After thinking for a long time, she still couldn't figure out why he suddenly got angry.

He looked down and saw the popsicle in his hand. Could it be because he didn’t buy him a popsicle?

She had been hesitating whether to give it to him, but seeing how aloof and reserved he usually was, she guessed that he wouldn't like to eat these things. Moreover, she had already tasted a bite when she bought it, so it would be inappropriate to give it to him.

A moment later, Xia Qingning walked out of the house, and soon she came back with two popsicles.

What if he was just angry because I didn’t buy him an ice cream?

Although Xia Qingning knew that the possibility was too small, he was now her God of Wealth and she could not offend him. She would give it to him later. If he didn't want to eat it, it would be fine.

The door was not closed, so out of politeness, Xia Qingning knocked before walking in.

Lu Jingzhe was sitting at the table, reading the book he had not finished.

Xia Qingning hesitated for a moment, handed over both popsicles, and asked softly:

"Do you want to eat it?" Then he added: "I didn't know what flavor you like, so I bought both flavors."

Lu Jingzhe, who was still angry in the previous second, had his anger extinguished by the two popsicles handed to him by Xia Qingning in the next second. It turned out that she also bought two for herself, and she must have put them aside when she was packing up just now.

"I like them all." Lu Jingzhe said as he raised his hand to take it.

Xia Qingning was very surprised to hear him say this. He really liked to eat it. Fortunately, she went to buy it again!

"Qingning, are you home?" At this time, Mai Miao's voice was heard outside the door.

"I'm here." Xia Qingning agreed, looked at Lu Jingzhe, motioned for her to go out for a while, and then walked out of the room.

Lu Jingzhe, who wanted to make himself angry but then calmed himself down, looked at the popsicles in his hands, one for Wu Xiaodong and two for himself.

Well, I made money!

Mai Miao watched Xia Qingning come out of the room, his eyes rolling around, he deliberately poked his head in to look inside, and asked:

"Brother Jingzhe is in the room?"

"He's here." Xia Qingning didn't understand: "Are you looking for him?"

"How is that possible?" Mai Miao covered her mouth and smiled meaningfully:

"I'm afraid I'll come at the wrong time and disturb you guys, right?"

"What do you want to take?" Xia Qingning looked confused.

Mai Miao poked her head and laughed even more cheerfully: "Pretend!"

Xia Qingning reacted and looked a little unnatural, but she did not deny it. She just changed the subject and asked:

"What do you find me for?"

“Here.” Mai Miao raised the bag in her hand: “I forgot to give you the clothes just now.”

Xia Qingning took the clothes from her and said, "I'll help you alter them. Come and get them tomorrow afternoon."

"Yeah." Mai Miao nodded, and suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and leaned close to Xia Qingning's ear and asked:

"I heard from my mom that He Shanshan is going to have a blind date tomorrow. The man seems to be a skilled worker, his family is quite wealthy, and he's an only child."

"Really?" Xia Qingning was a little confused. She had never heard Wang Mingfang and He Shanshan mention this matter.

"You don't know?" Mai Miao was a little surprised. After all, she had heard about this, but Xia Qingning, who lived under the same roof with He Shanshan, didn't know about it. After a moment, she seemed to understand something and said:

"She must be afraid that the man would look down on her after seeing you, so she deliberately hid it from you." After saying this, as if to verify, she looked at Xia Qingning and continued to ask:

"Did she ask you not to come back too early tomorrow?"

"Not really." Xia Qingning said truthfully.

"I think she takes this blind date very seriously. She even went out of her way to buy that red dress." Mai Miao said this and started to get angry again:

"When I think of her boasting today, I get angry. It's just that she bought an expensive skirt. What's the big deal? She even laughed at you for not being able to afford a skirt and having to buy rags."

Lu Jingzhe, who was about to come out to wash his hands, happened to hear Mai Miao's words. Just now, he saw Xia Qingning coming back with a pile of cloth scraps, and he was a little surprised. Did she buy those in order to save money?

Thinking of the scene of her being laughed at, Lu Jingzhe unconsciously frowned slightly.

Xia Qingning did not notice Lu Jingzhe. Her eyes stayed on Mai Miao's face. She saw the girl opposite her pouting and her cheeks puffed up because of anger. Suddenly, she felt that she was funny and cute at the same time, so she comforted her:

"Okay, don't be angry." He raised the bag in his hand and said, "I'll help you alter this skirt. It must be better looking than the one she wears!"

Mai Miao was not comforted and continued to speak indignantly:

"I'm not angry for myself, I'm angry at her for saying that to you." After saying that, she looked at the pieces of cloth that Xia Qingning had already arranged, still very confused, and asked:

"Can you really make nice clothes out of these scraps of cloth?"

"Of course." Xia Qingning looked confident. She had not learned fashion design for so many years in vain, and the title of genius designer was not earned in vain.

"What I'm best at is turning waste into treasure." Xia Qingning said with a generous and confident smile.

The delicate and small face, the fair and delicate skin, the bright eyes and white teeth, the charming and lovely figure, as beautiful as a blooming peach blossom, Mai Miao was stunned and couldn't help but praise:

"Qing Ning, you are so pretty!" Then she said with some regret:

"What a pity that I didn't buy that gauze skirt..." She forgot the name for a moment and tilted her head, trying to think.

"Georgette." Xia Qingning saw that she was thinking hard and reminded her.

"Yes, yes, it's Georgette." Mai Miao suddenly realized and continued:

"It's a pity that it's too expensive. Otherwise, if you bought it and put it on, you would be miles better than He Shanshan even without any makeup."

Xia Qingning smiled and had no obsession with the georgette skirt.

The two chatted for a while, and Mai Miao stood up and said:

"Then I'll go back and cook. I'll come back to get the skirt from you tomorrow." After saying that, he waved to Xia Qingning and left briskly.

After Mai Miao left, Lu Jingzhe walked out of the room. His eyes fell on the pile of cloth in the corner. Although the cloth had been carefully arranged, it was obvious that they were not of different sizes. There were big and small, long and short ones.

After a moment, Lu Jingzhe looked away, raised his leg and walked out.
